Based on the most helpful WSO content, Bain typically gets back with decisions within 24 hours if it's good news. If it takes longer, it might not be as positive, but this isn't a hard rule. For final round decisions, Bain often communicates good news via a call, while rejections are more likely to come through email. Since it's only been a day, there's still a chance you'll hear back soon. Stay patient and good luck!
